EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases the legendary tale of St. Dunstan, the 11th Century Archbishop of Canterbury, and his encounter with the Devil. Dated between 924 and 988, St. Dunstan is depicted in this print with an air of authority and determination as he holds the devil by the nose with a pair of tongs. The devil, in the form of a grotesque, horned figure, is shown cowering before the saint, his female demonic companion lurking in the background. St. Dunstan, a master goldsmith before his ordination, is known for his piety and miraculous abilities. According to tradition, the devil once visited him in the form of a goldsmith, attempting to tempt him away from his faith. However, St. Dunstan recognized the devil's true form and used his skills as a goldsmith to create a pair of tongs with a vice. He then captured the devil's nose with the tongs, forcing him to swear to leave him alone. This print, a testament to the rich history and folklore of the Middle Ages, highlights the power and influence of the Church during this period. The use of symbolism and vivid imagery in the depiction of St. Dunstan and the devil underscores the importance of faith and the struggle between good and evil. The intricate details of the saint's mitre and the devil's menacing features add to the overall allure and mystique of this work of art.
